Oh my god it's nearly here. What was promised to be a trip of a life time by my big bro Anthony (can i just say even though I apparently his little brother I am taller and can I also say that it is physically impossible to be a boy racer in a 1 litre Vauxhall Corsa).
All the final preperations have been taking place me and my brother added a high cost upgrade kit which makes the car weigh much less and allows much more storage space in the back (we took some seats out). Twas good.
Don't really have much more to say on this matter I am too overcome with excitement, but I will say one thing and that is:
Rock on Tommy
Peace out homes

T minus 8 days
Well, we're now at T-minus 8 days. Next Friday we will be on the road!
It has been a long and turbulent time getting to this point. Originally there were meant to be 4 of us, Me, Sebok, Bondy and Laura. But Laura and Bondy had to drop out (as mentioned previously). My little brother, Gary, stepped in to take a place, and we decided we would be ok with three people in the car - if not a little better because of the extra space!!
Sebok is now insured on the car, but Gary isn't, because my insurance company wouldn't insure him (he's a boy racer). So there will be two drivers. Also, my insurance company won't insure us to drive in Croatia, so when we travel from Budapest to Ljubjanja, we have to drive 'around' Croatia. Which should be interesting.
Anyways, the plan for the journey is follows:
Speak to you soon!
